R versus SAS
I found this on CrossValidated: "A medical statistician once told me, that they use SAS because if they make mistakes due to software bugs and it comes to lawsuits, SAS will recompensate them. R comes without warranty." Kjetil

New Member modifies settings!
Does this modification resolve the HTML problem? Sorry if I am slow to catch on. It's never been a problem on other groups I have posted. Even though its a simple thing, its never really been called to my attention. Sorry. Frankly I am now stepping into a realm I find quite intimidating. But I do see long range opportunity and possibilities if I can dog paddle long enough to absorb

CentOS-7 re-install
Ok, how is this supposed to work? I have re-installed CentOS-7 over the first install. On the "Installation Destination" (JHC can they make these name any more pretentious? What happened to boot disk?) I have exactly one ATA WD5000. I chose 'I will configure partitioning'. On the Manual Partitioning page I see the previous installation file-system.

We just hope MCF-now-Matroska will fill all the needed use for a multimedia container, so that probably (hopefully) covers all that OGG can do. It might sound pretentious but all this year I've been working hard (not alone and I've learned a lot from other people) on just a container.

Puppet Best Practice
Hello everyone, A long time ago, I posted the Stanford Best Practices and I''ve gone through and updated it today. I''d like to have people go through it and see if we can strip out some Stanford specific stuff and tag this as an official best practice. I think an official best practice will be important as more and more people consider making shareable modules, etc (mostly
